| Record cleaner Listen2tubes- I am interested in your experience with the EV-1. Am planning to get one in the near future. Sounds like it is working for you. | |
| Record cleaner Kethchup - sorry if that comment sort of confused things...My point was looking at how easily and consistently you can find distilled water + it's great purity (at least as originally produced) - I'd still go with it over all the other options. I ... | |
| What's your latest "Discovery" Just listened the other night to a non-audiophile CD of David Crosby's, "If I Could Only Remember My Name". It sounded great. Excellent separation, imaging and sound stage. Don't necessarily agree with the political point of view on some tracks bu... | |
| Devotion to 2Ch/MC? PS - I wrote my response before I read the whole string. I think I am 2nd'g Stehno's position.Johnnyb53 raises some good points. I was thinking about multi-channel solely as delivering discrete audio signals from other than front L & R. Great ... | |
| Record cleaner I don't kmow much but I do know a little about water treatment. I do it for a living, working for "Imagination at Work". Distilled would be preferred over demineralized or deionized or simple filter purified water. Assuming receiving vessels, tran... | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music oops - make that movie reference, "Close Encounters....". | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music Larry - thank you for the recommendations. My classical music education is very spotty and "happenchance". As I write, I am listening to RVW's "Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis" performed by the Academy of St Martin in the Fields with Neville ... | |
| Most achingly-beautiful music This is a really long thread. Don't know if anyone has already listed it, but if so, I 2nd or 3rd or 4th their vote for Vaughan Williams', "The Lark Ascending". I'll save my other 2 for later. | |
| Best guitar explosion of all time Many good suggestions...Eddie Van Halen and Vernon Reid for sure. Jimi and Stevie Ray to me are among the best(I watch tape of SRV playing and it is like some Higher Power flowing through him) - personally, I prefer them to Clapton. Leslie West of... | |
| System psychology, or just psyched out? My 2 cents - 1.It's about the music. Everything else is secondary.2. Enjoying music isn't dependent on the technical/sonic attributes of the hardware (but I'm not saying great sounding equipment doesn't improve the experience).3. In terms of sonic... | |
| A Very Long Primer on Record Cleaning Fluids Thanks Ketchup & T_bone...wouldn't have been aware of this without your posts. | |
| Totem Hawk or Forest : 1' close to rear walls jpiche - I am running Forests in a space smaller than yours: 15 x 13 x 8'. Have the speakers along the long wall - no choice. The Forests take a while to break in and intitially I was concerned about LACK of bass so had them ~12" from the wall. If... | |
| Jolida 502A - Other owners, what speakers? If still of interest to you, Mskeen, I am using a 502B w/KT88s to drive Totem Forests. Sounds great to me. | |
| Best short-lived band? Yow, Aiudiofeil! - Thought I was the only one that remembered Crabby Appleton ! I've searched but haven't found them on-line...is it still possible?How about "Good Rats"?You have a great list of bands here. I really like David and David - esp. "We... | |
| Static on Vinyl viridian - good one...thank goodness voltage ain't amps or I'd be a crispy critter for sure. Static Guard comes in a spray can. You can buy it in the laundry section at the grocery store. My wife used it to de-static clothing (that's what they sel... |
